Abstract
Wolf-elk-aspen interactions: Trophic cascade or trickle?
Elaine Brice
Dan MacNulty
As one of the world’s first National Parks, Yellowstone is renowned for a dynamic landscape that is home to many charismatic species. As one of the few deciduous trees in the Park, aspen is a valuable member of the ecosystem. A century of decline is mostly attributed to elk herbivory of aspen recruitment, while climatic factors are often regarded as unimportant.
